Overview of Magnetics
• Review of Maxwell’s equations
• Ampere’s law, Gauss’ law, Faraday’s law
• Magnetic circuits
• Flux, flux linkage, inductance and energy

Magnetics and Energy Conversion
2-3
Review of Maxwell’s Equations
• First published by James Clerk Maxwell in
1864
• Maxwell’s equations couple electric fields
to magnetic fields, and describe:
– Magnetic fields
– Electric fields
– Wave propagation (through the wave
equation)
• There are 4 Maxwell’s equations, but in
magnetics we generally only need 3:
– Ampere’s Law
– Faraday’s Law
– Gauss’ Magnetic Law

Review of Maxwell’s Equations
• We’ll review Maxwell’s equations in words, followed by a
little bit of mathematics and some computer simulations
showing the magnetic fields
Electromechanics
Magnetics and Energy Conversion
2-5
Ampere’s Law
• Flowing current creates a magnetic
field
r v
r v
v v d
∫C H ⋅ dl = ∫S J ⋅ dA + dt ∫S ε o E ⋅ dA
• In magnetic systems, generally there
is high current and low voltage (and
hence low electric field) and we can
approximate for low d/dt:
r v
v v
∫ H ⋅ dl ≈ ∫ J ⋅ dA
C
S
• In words: the magnetic flux density
integrated around any closed contour
equals the net current flowing through
the surface bounded by the contour

Finite-Element Analysis (FEA)
• Very useful tool for visualizing and solving shapes and
magnitudes of magnetic fields
• FEA is often used to simulate and predict the performance
of motors, etc.
• Following we’ll see some 2-dimensional (2D) FEA results to
help explain Maxwell’s equations

2-8
Faraday’s Law
• A changing magnetic flux impinging on
a conductor creates an electric field
and hence a current (eddy current)
r v
d r v
∫C E ⋅ dl = − dt ∫S B ⋅ dA
• The electric field integrated around a
closed contour equals the net timevarying magnetic flux density flowing
through the surface bound by the
contour
• In a conductor, this electric field creates
r
r
a current by:
J = σE
• Induction motors, brakes, etc.

Demonstration of Faraday’s Law: Electrodynamic
Drag (NdFeB Magnet-in-Tube)
• Process:
– Moving magnet creates changing magnetic field in
copper tube
– Changing magnetic field creates induced voltage
– Induced voltage creates current
– By Lorentz force law, induced current and applied
magnetic field create drag force
Electromechanics
Magnetics and Energy Conversion
2-11
Gauss’ Magnetic Law
• Gauss' magnetic law says that the
integral of the magnetic flux density over
any closed surface is zero, or:
∫ B ⋅ dA = 0
S
• This law implies that magnetic fields are
due to electric currents and that
magnetic charges (“monopoles”) do not
exist.
• Note: similar form to KCL in circuits.
(We’ll use this analogy later…)

F = ∫ J × BdV
• For a wire of length l carrying current I perpendicular to
a magnetic flux density B, this reduces to:
F = IBl

Intuitive Thinking about Magnetics
• By Ampere’s Law, the current J and the magnetic field H
are generally at right angles to one another
• By Gauss’ law, magnetic field lines loop around on
themselves
– No magnetic monopole
• You can think of high- μ magnetic materials such as steel
as an easy conduit for magnetic flux…. i.e. the flux easily
flows thru the high- μ material
Electromechanics
Magnetics and Energy Conversion
2-16
Magnetic Field (H) and Magnetic Flux Density (B)
• H is the magnetic field (A/m in SI units) and B is the
magnetic flux density (Weber/m2, or Tesla, in SI units)
• B and H are related by the magnetic permeability μ by B =
μH
• Magnetic permeability μ has units of Henry/meter
• You can think of high- μ magnetic materials such as steel
as an easy conduit for magnetic flux…. i.e. the flux easily
flows thru the high- μ material
• In free space μo = 4π×10-7 H/m
• Note that B and H are vectors; they have both a magnitude
and a direction

Inductor Without Airgap
• Magnetic flux is constrained to flow within steel
Constitutive relationships
In free space:
B = μo H
Magnetic permeability of free space μo = 4π×10-7 Henry/meter.
In magnetic material, magnetic permeability is higher than μo:
B = μH

Aside: What Does Infinite Core μ Imply?
In core:
Φ c = Bc AC
In airgap:
Φ g = B g Ag
In core, Bc is finite; this means that if μÆ ∞, then Hc Æ 0 for finite
Bc. Also, infinite μ implies zero reluctance
Electromechanics
Magnetics and Energy Conversion
2-35
Example: Simple Synchronous Machine
• Some initial thoughts,
before doing any
equations:
– By symmetry, airgap
flux and flux density
are the same in both
gaps
– Since permeability is
infinite, H inside steel
is zero

“Soft” Magnetic Materials
• Materials with a small B/H curve, such as steels, etc.
• Much of the previous analysis assumed that steel had
infinite permeability (μ Æ ∞) or that permeability was
constant and large.

and losses

Permanent Magnets

behave as very weak permanent magnets
• Permanent magnets, or “hard” magnetic materials, have a
high coercive force Hc and can produce significant flux in
an airgap; they also have a “wide” hysteresis loop

Some Very Brief Comments on Superconductors
• Superconductors have zero resistance if the temperature is
low enough, the field acting on the superconductor is low
enough, and the current through the superconductor is low
enough
• Superconductors are classified as “low temperature” (NbTi,
NbSn) or “high temperature” (YBCO, BSCCO)
• Low-Tc superconductors are usually chilled with liquid helium
(4.2K)
• High-Tc superconductors are usually used in the 20K-77K
range

Some Comments on Autotransformers
• Autotransformers differ from isolation transformers in that
there is no isolation between primary and secondary
• However, this lack of isolation allows some of the
transferred power to be conducted from primary to
secondary instead of magnetic induction
• Autotransformers in general require less core material
per kVA rating
• Autotransformers used where lack of isolation doesn’t
pose a safety issue
